LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY UNITED STATES SCORED BY THE PAN AFRICAN PRONOUNCEMENT UNITED STATES SCORED BY THE PAN AFRICAN PRONOUNCEMENT Document Registers Severe Indictment Against White Civilization for Mistreatment of Dark-skin People. FRANCE IS HIGHLY PRAISED VOL. XXVIII. UNITED STATES SO PAN AFRICAN Document Registers Severe Civilization for Mistreatr FRANCE IS HIG LONDON, ENGLAND, Oct. 12. Indictment of the manner in which the civilized white world mistreats its colored citizens is contained in the "statement of the world," issued by the Pan African Conference at the close of its session here. England and Belgium as well as the United States come in for severe criticism for their attitude towards their dark-skinned citizens and subjects. France alone is praised for her manifesting a truly just and democratic spirit. The document says: "England, with all her Pax Britannica, her courts of justice, established commerce and a certain apparent but unreal recognition of native law and customs, has nevertheless systematically fostered ignorance among the natives, has enslaved them and is still enslaving some of them, has usually declined even to train black and brown men in real self-government, to recognize civilized black folks as civilized, or to grant to colored colonies those rights of self-government which it freely gives to white men. Belgium Exploits the Congo. "Belgium as a nation has but recently assumed responsibility for her colonies, and has taken some steps to lift them from the worst abuses of the autocratic regime; but she has not yet instituted any adequate state system of education, she has not confirmed to the people the possession of their land and labor, and she shows no disposition to allow the natives any voice in their own government or to provide for their political future. Her colonial policy is still mainly demoniated by the banks and great corporations who are determined to exploit Congo rather than civilize it. Portugal and Spain Has Humane Code. Portugal and Spain have never had a caste line against persons of culture who happen to be of Negro decent, Portugal has a humane code for the natives and has begun their education in some quarters. But unfortunately, the industrial, almost wholly in the hands of foreigners whom Portugal cannot or will not control and who are exploiting land and labor and re-establishing the African slave trade. United States Permits Disfranchise ment. "The United States of America first brutally enslaving millions of black folk, suddenly emancipated them and began their education, but it acted without system or forethought, throwing the freed men on the world penniless and landless, educating them without thoroughness and system, subjecting them the while to lynching, lawlessness, discrimination, insult and slander, such as human beings have endured and survived. To save their own government they enfranchised the Negro and then when danger passed allowed hundreds of thousands of educated and civilized black folks to be lawlessly disfranchised and subjected to a caste system, and at the same time, in 1776, 1812, 1861, 1897 and 1917, they asked and allowed thou- ORIGINAL IN FOOR CONDITION sands of black men to offer up their lives as a sacrifice to the country which despised them. France Alone Democratic. France Alone Democratic. "France alone of the great colonial powers has sought to place her cultured black citizens on a plane of absolute legal and social equality with her white, and give them representation in her highest legislature. In her colonies she has a widespread but still imperfect system of state education. This splendid beginning must be completed by widening the political bases of her native government, by restoring to her indigenes the ownership of the soil, by protecting native labor against the aggression of established capital, and by compelling no black man or white, to be a soldier unless the country gives him a voice in his own government." RESENT INSULTS TO FLAG Fort Wayne, Ind., Oct. 16.—Display of the black and green flag of the African commonwealth, proposed by the Universal Improvement Association as the emblem of the phantom colony in Africa, in front of a local ice cream parlor, headquarters of the organization here, aroused the ire of Negro ex-service men tonight, who broke up a meeting held in honor of a representative of the organization. According to colored men who broke into the meeting, this organization has been holding nightly parades through the downtown district, carrying an American flag at half staff and another flag of American design, but instead of having forty-eight stars, had one large star. This aroused the ire of the colored ex-soldiers and the near riot followed tonight. Police quieted the disturbance after several Negroes had been injured. Ku Klux Klan Barred From Jury Service Chiego, Ill. — Judge Joseph B. David, at a hearing of a $5,000 damage suit against the city of Chicago, brought by the widow of Joseph Sanford, colored, who was killed during the race riot in 1919, refused last Monday to allow anyone to sit on a jury who is a member of the Ku Klux Klan. "Members of the Ku Klux Klan are not 100 per cent Americans," the judge declared. "They are not fit to be jurors in any court in the United States." Counsel for Mrs. Sanford was questioning the jurors when the judge interposed. He first asked whether any of them were prejudiced against any religion or race, and three of the jurors admitted they were. State Hist. & Nat Hist No. State House DIABLE PEOPLE'S PA RADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, Colored Advance Society Polls Congress on Ku Klux Klan. THE National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced early replies to a letter sent to every member of Congress, House of Representatives and Senate, asking for a statement on the Ku Klux Klan. In the first week replies came denouncing the Klan from the following senators: Howard Sutherland of West Virginia; Arthur Capper of Kansas; David I. Walsh of Massachusetts; William M. Calder of New York; Harry S. New of Indiana; Miles Poindexter of Washington, and Frank B. Willis of Ohio. Among the representatives who declared themselves opposed to the Ku Klux Klan and its program are the following: John F. Carew, Thomas J. Ryan, Anthony J. Griffith, Peter G. Ten Eyck and Michael J. Hogan, all of New York; T. W. Harrison of the Seventh district in Virginia; Miner G. Norton of Ohio; Joseph W. Fordney of Michigan; John Philip Hill of Maryland; Merrill Moores of Indiana; Roscoe C. Patterson and T. W. Hukwinde of Missouri; F. F. Patterson, Jr., of New Jersey; W. J. Graham of Illinois; J. N. Tinker of Kansas. Among the statements received from the senators and representatives are the following: Senator Arthur Capper: "I do not feel that I can condemn too strongly the Ku Klux Klan and its methods. There is no place in this country for an organization which seizes expediency as an excuse to defy society and take the law into its own hands. . . . No scheme which would have a tendency to encourage class or race hatred—and I believe the methods of the Ku Klux Klan do this—should be tolerated for a moment." Senator Howard Sutherland: "I am glad to assure you that I have no sympathy whatever with this organization and think it a menace to the liberties of our people." Senator David I. Walsh: "If I am correctly informed as to the purpose of the Ku Klux Klan, namely that it is an organization which discriminates against American citizens who differ racially and religiously and promotes racial and religious misunderstanding, I consider it un-American and a menace to liberty and our free institutions." Senator William M. Calder: "If the Ku Klux Klan is an organization conducted for the purposes indicated in the recent newspaper articles, then I condemn it in the strongest possible manner. I am deeply opposed to any society or association which seeks to raise religious or race strife in America." Senator Miles Poindexter: "No secret organization, such as that referred to, avowedly for the purpose of taking an active part in the settlement of social and political questions, can fail to run into excesses and commit various abuses. It is entirely inconsistent with the principle of government, through public agencies, controlled by the votes of the people. I have no doubt the particular organization referred to will be disbanded." Senator Frank B. Willis: "As a matter of history it sought to rule by threat, intimidation and fear. If such ideas and organizations must be resorted to to maintain order in this country, Republican government is a failure. I am therefore not in favor of this organization as I understand it." Among the statements from the members of the House of Representatives were the following: RIGINAL IN PO John F. Carew: "I have nothing but condemnation for the Ku Klux Klan and hope to see it at once disorganized and suppressed." T. W. Harrison: "I am opposed to any secret organization, whether it is known as the Ku Klux Klan or goes by any other name, which undertakes to interfere in public affairs in any manner, shape, or form. There is no occasion for any revival of the old Ku Klux Klan, which served its purpose in years immediately succeeding the war, and I am in favor of any steps necessary to suppress any organization that has any political purposes in view and which does not work in the open and submit both its methods and its objects to public inspection, and does not confine its activities strictly within the law." Anthony J. Griffin: "The Ku Klux Klan is absolutely unnecessary to accomplish the purpose it professes to aim at and its methods are a menace to the American Republic." John Philip Hill: "As a member of Congress and a supporter of the Constitution, I am opposed to the creation of an 'Invisible Empire' within the United States, and, further, I am opposed to any organization which foments racial and religious hatreds." J. W. Fordney: "If the Ku Klux Klan advocates such sentiments or principles as set forth in the pamphlets you furnish me, it comes in the class of unlawful organizations, and the federal authorities should at once take steps to suppress it." T. W. Hukriede: "I consider as unAmerican any organization which is founded on race hatred or religious hatred, and as the Ku Klux Klan falls in this category, I am unalterably opposed to this organization." The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announced that further congressional comments on the Ku Klux Klan would be made public as they arrived. Absolute Equality Means of Advancement New York., Oct. 10.—The "Nation" announces the first American publication of the manifesto of the Pan-African Congress in London. Addressed to the "World" the manifesto affirms the absolute equality of races as the foundation of world peace and human advancement. It approves as "the beginning of wisdom" the establishment of political institutions among suppressed peoples, and protests against the commercial exploitation of the Negro. The bodies, minds and souls of Fiji and Congo," it declares, "are judged almost solely by the quotations on the Bourse. The day of such world organization is past and . . . the twentieth century must come to judge men as men and not merely as material and labor." The manifesto demands for suppressed races, recognition, education, self-government and freedom of culture and "the ancient common ownership of the land and its natural fruits." ship of the land and its natural fruits."

When Earl Pollard, a waiter at a Boulder hotel, was brought before her on an assault charge, she fined him $4.80, and then turned around and fined the complain- ing witness, Walter Carter, a like like amount for provoking a fight. dN eg Rt ae rk Fie ee A STATESMAN R : R ‘ =—_—_—_—_—_—— | R | The Mouth-Piece | of the People of | Colorado and the | Entire West | ‘ —— ‘ ae | A RELIABLE chronicle : of their doings and : progress; a faithful mirror § of their wants, their hopes, their best aspirations. an R THE | R | COLORADO R | STATESMAN a?

POOR TUBES ARE GREAT HANDICAP Standard Makes Mean Safety Whereas "Bargains" Are Likely to Cause Trouble. GUARD AGAINST SLOW LEAKS Cap on End of Valve Helps to Hold Air and Should Be on Tight—Washer Likewise Has Important Function to Perform. The well-being of 86 per cent of a motorist's tire investment depends upon 14 per cent—the relation of casing to tube costs. A great part of tire trouble is the direct result of under-inflation, with the inner tube the offender. Yet the average car owner neither knows the name of his tubes nor the length of their service. Cheap and unbranded tubes handle cap any casing. The best is at the mercy of a poor tube. The difference in tubes is tremendous. A standard make inner tube is built of almost pure rubber and has a strength of between one and one and one-half tons per cross section inch. This means that if the tube stock were built up to a square test piece one inch thick and one inch wide, it would be strong enough to lift from 1,000 to 3,000 pounds. Inferior tubes do not have this strength and are highly compounded. Life Usually Long as Casing. On an average it is possible to build life into an inner tube only equal to that of the casing. It is false economy to use an old tube in a new casing. Inferior and wormout tubes should be quickly discarded. The tube which has delivered full service during the life of one tire is almost certain to have developed slow leaks. When a tube falls to hold air it is worthless. As a general average in all services it has been found that pressure in a tire properly taken care of and when a good tube is used will decrease about five pounds in two weeks. When this ratio is greatly exceeded, the tube should be examined without delay before the life of the tire is sapped. Valve Cap Should Be Tight. Valve Cap Should Be Tight. It is well to remember that the cap on the end of the valve stem helps to make the tube hold air. Often when the valve inside is leaking, pressure may be retained without a rapid decrease by screwing the cap on tightly. Its function is to assist the valve, and its use is imperative. The washer is likewise furnished for a purpose and should be used. It holds the valve stem in proper position also that it cannot pull loose nor the tube be pinched, and keeps out water. With a standard-make tire, use a standard-make tube. "Bargain" tubes mean tire trouble and ruin the profit and pleasure of motoring. AUTOMOBILE NEWS To clean a dirty file, dip it in benzol and scrub with a stiff brush. Twenty-seven states in the Union now have over 100,000 motor vehicles each. Germany exported 20,000 automobiles of various kinds, and 4,000 motorcycles in 1920. The merits of some of these new vulcanizers on the market should be investigated by the person who lives far from a repair station. During 1920 1,745 automobiles, valued at $2,425,518, and automobile parts to the value of $2,798,141 were imported into Japan. ORIGINAL IN POOR CONDITION Picked Up on the Road. Keep the engine clean. Flush the radiator occasionally. Wash the car with a light stream and a sponge. Keep spark well advanced and save gas. Test your valve springs for strength. Every knock is a warning. Attend to it. Gasoline sold for 6 cents a gallon in 1898. The first four cylinder car was made in 1900. Investigation shows the average car is junked after running 60,000 miles. Dirt between the brake drums and bands may cause the brakes to squeak. Direct spotlight to the right. Raining? Use the chains for safety. CORRECT ALIGNMENT OF BIG IMPORTANCE Auto Wheels Out of Line Give Short Tire Life. Many Owners Do Not Attempt Task Because of Lack of Knowledge— Easy and Accurate Method Is Shown in Illustration. Lining up the wheels of an automobile is a problem that many motorists do not attempt because they do not know how; but the following method is easy and accurate in every case. Set the car in an open space on an absolutely flat floor. Place two boxes on the floor, one about two feet from the rear right wheel. Now stretch a string between the two boxes, being careful to keep the string at an even Automobile Wheels Out of Alignment Give Short Tire Life. Keep Them Properly Aligned by This Simple Method. distance from the floor. Measure from this string to the front and rear parts of the right front and rear tires. If the distances are not equal, shift the boxes or the steering wheel until they are exactly so. The string will then be exactly parallel to the line of the wheels on that side. Then, with a second pair of boxes and a string, do the same thing on the left side, thereby obtaining another line. When this is accomplished, measure across from one line to the other, making sure that these two are equal distances from the wheels. Do the same at the rear. If these two measurements agree exactly, the wheels are in alignment.—Popular Science Monthly. TO AVOID MAGNETO TROUBLE Remove Distributor Cover Once # Month and Wipe Out—Also Clean Breaker Points. While the magneto only needs two drops of oil in each bearing every thousand miles it is well to remove the distributor cover once a month and wipe out with a cloth dipped in gasoline. At the same time pass a piece of double-ought sand-paper between the breaker points to remove any corrosion that may be forming. This will put off magneto troubles almost indefinitely. STRUCTS MOST ME ON CAR WHEELS PLOT AGAINST OFFICIALS BARED COMMUNISTS THREATEN AMERI CANS IN FRANCE WITH DEATH AS REPRISALS. GONSULS GET LETTERS GONSULS GET LETTERS POLICE GUARD BUILDINGS TO PREVENT OUTBREAKS IN SEVERAL CITIES. (Western Newspaper Union News Service.) Paris.—A plot by French communists to take retaliatory measures against all American officials in France in the event of the execution of Sacco and Vanzetti, convicted in the United States of murder, was revealed when it became known that threats had been made to blow up the offices of the American reparations commission and the passport bureau. Threatening letters warning of reprisals in the event of the death of the two men were also received by the American consul general, A. M. Thackara, and the American consuls at Merseilles, Bordeaux and Lyons. As a result strong forces of police are guarding the new building near the Place de L'Etoile, occupied by the reparations and passport offices, and also the consulate in the Rue des Italiens. The police in Bordeaux, Lyons and Marseilles are guarding consulates there. Letters to the passport and reparations officials were not signed, but a letter received by Mr. Thackara was signed by the communist organization in a small town near Lille. It is sold retaliatory measures would be taken against American citizens in France if the men were executed. No arrests had been announced by the French police in connection with the explosion of a bomb in Ambassador Herrick's home, and police say they have abandoned the theory of a plot and believe that the sending of the bomb was the act of an individual communist. Police have discovered the postoffice where the package was mailed. It is located in the workmen's quarter. Ambassador Herrick received forty-six more letters of protest, including one threatening lives of American officials in France. The Americans do not accept the theory of the police; they believe a widespread plot exists to do serious harm to Americans. The latest letter to the ambassador is signed by the communist-socialist, and young communist organizations of Chalons-Sur-Marne and is stamped with the official seal of these bodies. Charge Fraudulent Withdrawals. Philadelphia.—An alleged conspiracy by which liquor valued at nearly $15,000,000 was withdrawn from distilleries in many states through fraudulent permits was revealed by prohibition officers, who announced warrants had been issued for the arrest of two former officials in the office of W. C. McConnell, director of federal prohibition enforcement in Pennsylvania. Both men are charged with conspiring with others to defraud the United States by means of fraudulent permits. To Sell Army Kits. Washington.—Anybody in need of 700,000 masks or 750,000 packs "that you carry on your back?" Or ten tons of kitchen and diningroom utensils? Or 15,000 Klaxon horns? The War Department announced that these things are for sale and bids will be received on them at Edgewood arsenal, Edgewood, Md. Anteroom Ceiling Falls in Senate. Washington.—The great gold chandler in the President's room off the Senate chamber was badly damaged when part of the ceiling fell and broke gold and glass globes. Senators Pomerene of Ohio, and Swanson of Virginia, were showered with debris but escaped injury. Governors to Meet Dec. 5th. Madison, Wis.-State governors will meet at Charleston, S. C., Dec. 5 for their annual meeting to consider problems confronting the country, M. C. Riley, secretary of the conference, announced. Unemployment will be one of the principal subjects, Mr. Riley said. Smuggle Gold Into U. S. Mexico City.—A million dollars' worth of gold bullion has been smuggled into the United States, it was charged by the newspaper Excelsior. Government agents have begun examining the accounts of all banks in an effort to trace the shipment. Four Students Killed in Wreck. Danville, Ill.—Stanwood Johnstone of Minnesota, Herbert Hopkins, Portland, Ore.; Thomas Monilaw, Chicago, and Harold Skinner of Oak Park, Ill., were killed, and Walter Reckless of Wisconsin suffered a broken leg and inured hand when the automobile in which they were riding was hit by a Chicago & Eastern Illinois freight train on a crossing one mile north of Milford, Ill. All members of the party were students at the University of Chicago. Varieties of Spiders Webs. The common house spider spins a web quite different from that of the garden spider. The house spider's web consists of a silken tube hidden in a dark corner, with an irregular sheet of closely woven meshes spread before it. The tube is the spider's urking hole and place of refuge; the outspread web is its snare. The wolf spider makes a tubular hole with a hinged door for a refuge and spreads so snare. Still another species of spider constructs a far smother tube of silk without any lid or door. Beginning of Manual Training The earliest official recognition of manual training was given in Finland, where Uno Cygnaeus organized a plan for such work in primary schools in 1858, and where such instruction was made compulsory for certain pupils in 1868. Sweden soon after recognized the importance of such training and gave an impetus to the movement. Oil Can Grip. A piece of sheet metal bent roughly in the shape of a buffalo's horns with a hole punched in the center so that it will fit under the spout, which is then screwed in place, makes an admirable finger grip and enables the operator to shoot the oil more accurately. Get Moisture From Ice In the Tanana valley, Alaska though the rainfall is very light, crop draw ample moisture from the melting of subterranean ice for the first few years after the land is first cultivated. Eventually the ice recedes to such a depth that it no longer supplier the plants with water. Warm Secret. An interesting suggestion for use in connection with soldering iron or steel is to make a swab from flexible elec tric light cord, which is used in swabbing on the work a solution made by dissolving a bit of zinc in muriatic acid and then diluting with a little water. Sour Milk. Among the many uses for sour milk is that of silver polish. Put the silverware in the liquid and let it remain for 20 to 30 minutes. Then wash as usual. It will look as if it had been polished. PUBLIC TRUSTEE'S SALE. N. 214. Whereas, Florette E.

HE AMERICAN public, as a rule, is not prone to borrow trouble. | It T ‘Seldom indulges in a continuation of serious reflections, It approaches everything in a light-hearted manner and usually waits to reach a bridge before attempting to cross it. But no American with a modicum of common sense an view the threatened railroad strike with out a great feeling of concern. Its portent is the most awe-inspiring calamity that has loomed upon our national horizon since our entry into the world’s war in 1917. It is not within the province of this article to attempt to fix defi- nite blame for this condition, Both sides to the controversy appear Hard headed beyond the pale of patience. ‘There is no gainsaying the fact that organized labor, during the period of the war time prosperity, assumed an arrogance but little removed from despotism, nor has that attitude mel- lowed appreciably during these days of industrial readjustment. On the other hand, the railroad heads having become familiar with high rates and tariffs in other days, are now inclined to frown disdainfully upon any move calculated to bring about a muck needed reduction, And so both sides are wrong and scem bent upon catapulting the nation to destruction without regard or thought of what the great third party—the American public— may suffer in the process. Both sides thus approach the very acme of un- pardonable selfishness, and both sides should be brought sharply to ac- count, There will be many railroad employés willing to work and who need work, that will be helplessly dragged down in this maelstrom of industrial strife. We refer to the colored railroad employés, thousands of them throughout the country, who have but little if any voice in the final con- ditions of the unions and none whatever in the affairs of the roads, and yet who must suffer untold loss and endure unnecessary hardships. The strong arm of this government will have become a withered member, of no use whatever to the body politic if it does not reach out and bring to sensi- ble terms these two belligerent forces that now seem certain to carry us to national destruction. N INVESTMENT in future manhood that means the bringing back of A returns that cannot be measured in dollars and cents, is what a dol- lar invested in the Boy Scout movement this week means to every Denver man and woman, Especially should it be a source of gratification to the colored citizen who contributes, large or small, to this movement, since the Boy Scout activities gives to us the very thing we long have strived for, the total obliteration of racial lines. The opportunity is afforded us to show to what extent we are willing to back up our preachments with our dollars, Here is the one organization founded upon. principle. Its every teaching is wholesome, It is more than American in its application, for the Boy Scouts now tread upon soil in almost every advanced nation. It is a most beautiful lesson of history that the early impressions of life are the most lasting, Then what can mean more to our future, what can bet- ter crown our efforts than an energetic promotion of scouting and its broad, democratic principles? Some one has come forward with the prophecy that there are 5,000 boys in Denver who should be identified with the Scouts. We wonder what percentage of this number would be our rightful quota. Let us not forget the rare opportunity and treat given some of our boys who went to Europe a year or so ago with the Boy Scout band, Take from them the beautiful story of that trip and think of what it would mean to other of our boys. The deep impress left will not be effaced as long as life lasts. One of the sweet tenets of Scout life is to “do a good turn daily.” ‘Though not emphasized as such, there is something in that tenet most Christ-like in its conception and application. We will have a better world in which to live and there will be a greater regard for all humanity when old, as well as young, measure the extent of their day’s happiness by the consoling knowledge that they have done some good deed or displayed a spirit of kindliness toward a fellow human being. We are strong for Boy| Scout week and believe it to be the greatest harbinger of universal good | will that civilization now knows. MASONIC OFFICIAL CONDEMNS KU KLUX.

Las Cruces, N, M., Oct, 19. 4 Jaime ing that definite evidence has come to his attention of solicitation among Masons and officers of Masonic lodges for membership in the Ku Klux Klan, Francis BE.

EDENS, Adi’: ess to College Girls’ Club. ff , “9 af SO Just as long as you're green, young ladies, you'll {i keep on growing. ‘The way to keep on learning is to realize that you need to learn. You will learn as long as you try; you will grow as long as you admit you are # green. But the moment you begin to think you know Smee | enough, you will stop learning. Your mental growth will end right there. H I began life as a Western Union messenger boy. I was green and I knew it and I climbed up because 4 I realized that I had pretty much everything to learn. So I kept on learning. I got to be a mail carrier; then 1 went into the railway service and advanced to freight and passenger conductor. I became vice grand master of the Brotherhood of Railway ‘Trainmen. I was assistant general superintendent of the free delivery system of the Postoffice department. As president of the Illinois Highway association I had a good deal to do with the good roads of the state. I am vice president of a bank now—and I’m still green enough to keep on grow- ing mentally. Avail yourselves of every avenue of learning. Do not neglect any- thing because it seems unimportant. ‘The reason many people miss oppor- tunities is that they have contempt before they investigate. They do not admit that there is anything to be learned from a new and untried prop- osition. Here are two valuable aphorisms of Ben Franklin: “Learn of the skillful; he that teaches himself has a fool for a master.” “He that won't be counseled can’t be helped.” Half of Criminality and Insanity Due to Improper Care of Eyes By DR. R. C. AUGUSTINE, Pres’t American Optometric Ass’n. Vifty per cent of the criminality and insanity of the United States could be done away with by proper eye treatment in youth. Every advance of civilization increases the proportion of criminals and weaklings—all directly traceable to improper care of the eyes. Ninety per cent of the industrial accidents, as well as motor car and train wrecks, are due to poor eyes. Neglect of a boy's eyes when he is in the earlier grades of school af- fects his entire health, and he finds difficulty in mastering his studies. He leaves school untrained, uneducated and becomes a hanger-on on the fringe of society. Neglect of the eyes in youth is responsible for more than half the inmates of our penal institutions. A large percentage of those now in asylums would never have been there had their eyes been properly cared for in youth. ye strain brings on poor health, nervousness, insomnia and other conditions which result in insanity. With our increasing specialization in occupation, our high illumina- tion in cities and our mechanical devices, we are rapidly building up a condition which ean only result in more criminals and insane unless we adopt some sane method of overcoming this tremendous strain which the eyes were never fitted to stand. “There Is No Proof Whatever of the Sphericity of the Earth” By WILBUR GLENN VOLIVA, Overseer Zion City, Il. ‘There is no proof whatsoever of the sphericity of the earth and I am prepared to refute modern astronomy, scientifically as well as from the standpoint of the Bible. All standing water is level. Let anyone disprove it if he can. That is conclusive evidence that the old theory of the sphericity of the earth is false, A man stood at Kingston, Jamaica, and saw the lighthouse at Ha- vana harbor, 82 miles distant, which is another conclusive proof that the sphericity of the earth is a fake, ‘The midnight sun has been seen hundreds of times, but it would be absolutely impossible to see it on a sphere. You would have to look through hundreds of miles of earth and rock. ‘There is a railroad in South Amer- ica 2,000 miles long, which is almost perfectly level. ‘The Suez canal is 100 miles long without locks and with scarcely any rise at all. Where is your curvature of the earth? ‘There is none. ‘They say that science is not speculation ; but if science is true, then there can be no conflict between it and the Word of God. I will take the Word of God and down any modern astronomer on the face ef the earth and dispose of him in less than 30 minutes. In Our Campaign Against the Great White Plague Nature Is With Us By DR. WALKER VEOZIE, New York University. ‘Tuberculosis is decreasing at an accelerated rate. Its frequency has dropped nearly 69 per cent since 1865. This decline undoubtedly is due in part to the growing prevalence of cleaner habits, better food and the cult of the open window ; the adverse food and living conditions, incident upon the World war, set back the improvement many years in Europe, especially in Austria. Another factor,*however, in the disappearance of the disease has been shown to be the fact that resistance to it is what the biologists call a domi- nant hereditary trait. A dominant hereditary trait is a characteristic trans- mitted from parent to offspring, which tends to assert itself in the off- spring over a contrary characteristic whenever the two are present together. Resistance to tuberculosis is an hereditary trait and also dominant, for more children of marriages between resistant and non-resistant parents will be proof against tuberculosis than will be susceptible to the disease. ‘These results give occasion for opitimism in respect to the ultimate outcome of our international campaign against the white plague, as we are assured that nature is allied with and not against us in the struggle ee ee TALKING MACHINE EVERYBODY LISTEN Ks Be cy iM - aaa a \ 4A THIS MOST BEAUTIFUL Value $250.00 Only $ 50 with 5 Records TET mit a © ee i i i In offering this most beautiful Talking Machine for sale we mention we have secured the Exclusive Agency; we feel we save you over $100 Let us show you this instrument.

Miss Pope, charming daughter of Rev. and R. L. Pope, was gorgeously gowned white venetian lace over bride's sash with a richly flowing veil and peared carrying gracefully a she-boquet of white rose buds. The great estimable young man and so Mrs. Nora Fairbanks, was dressed the conventional evening dress. Grant Jones had the misfortune this week of having all his clothes and other valuables destroyed by fire. R. E. Tolbert left this week for Chicago, Ill., where he will visit several weeks. Mrs. Wm. F. Hall, 167 Columbine street, still remains quite ill and her many friends regret that an apparent improvement a few days ago was not as pronounced as they hoped. The program rendered at t.e. Y. M. C. A. last Sunday, under the auspices of the Denver branch, N. A. A. C. P., was of a high order and greatly enjoyed by all present. Mr. Shirley Liggens, the famous tenor singer, who has become such a favorite in Denver, is training a chorus of male voices to sing before the Denver Civic and Commercial Association on the night of Oct. 28th, when the Denver Colored Civic Association is to be officially received as an affiliated body. The residence of Mrs. Jerry Steeler, at 2415 Lafayette street, and that of Mrs. H. S. Henry, at 2419, were swept by flames of an unknown origin Tuesday morning and considerable damage inflicted before gotten under control by the fire department. The house of Geo. McIntyre, white, who lives at 2409 Lafayette, was also pretty badly damaged. Y. M. C. A. NOTES. It is a beautiful sight, the gathering and drilling of the so-called "Olinger Boys." Every Saturday morning, about nine-thirty, one sees these boys gathering from every quarter of the city, pulling for the "Y" building. Their freshly washed faces, clean, white shirt waists and neat knee trousers make them very attractive. At ten o'clock sharp the whistle sounds, and there is an orderly calling into line for roll call. With the assistance of a senior member of the Olinger Highlanders they are carried through their different drills which are fascinating to witness. Seventy-five attended the drills last Saturday morning. When they are dismissed they are supposed to leave immediately for their homes, unless by special permission they are allowed to remain for a game or two. Truly, the "Olinger Boys" are coming. The swimming and gymnasium classes at the Bath house are making splendid progress. Forty boys attended the classes last Wednesday night. Men are rapidly enrolling for the Business Men's course which will begin on Saturday evening, November 5th. The entire course of twelve splendid lectures costs only one dollar. The business men never had a better thing. The meeting last Sunday afternoon was under the auspices of the N. A. A. C. P., and was conducted by Mr. George W. Gross. A notable feature of the program was the singing of the "Negro National Anthen" by a trio, which was led by Lieutenant Mann. A committee of young ladies served tea at the close of the meeting. The program tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon will be given under the auspices of the City Federation of Women's Clubs, and will be led by Mrs. Laura Hill. With the splendid talent in the Federation it goes without saying that the program will be of a high character. Both men and women are invited to attend. The second weekly social of the season will be held next Tuesday evening. A program and a good time will be had. Refreshments will be served free by a special committee of ladies. All men are cordially invited to attend. POPE-FAIRBANKS WEDDING. What will go down in the social annals of Denver as the most beautiful church wedding ever witnessed in this city took place at Shorter Church Thursday night when Miss Jamsie A. Pope became the bride of C. Victor Fairbanks. Nothing to equal it in beauty of decoration, completeness in detail and perfection in grandeur was ever seen in Denver. Miss Pope, the charming daughter of Rev. and Mrs. R. L. Pope, was gorgeously gowned in white venetian lace over bride's satin, with a richly flowing veil and appeared carrying gracefully a shower boquet of white rose buds. The groom, an estimable young man and son of Mrs. Nora Fairbanks, was dressed in the conventional evening dress. A bevy of beautiful bride's maids, consisting of Miss Lovingood, Miss Linder, Miss Colston, Miss Richardson, Miss Davis and Mrs. O'Neil, attended the bride. Mr. Ralph Motley, a cousin of of the groom, was best man, and the attending groomsmen were Dr Holmes, Mr. Juo Hawthorne, Curtis M. Harris and Andrew Kirk. Little Emily Langston and Miss Catherine Cary were flower girls and Olivia Douglass ring bearer. Mrs. Sonora Maxwell, another cousin of the groom, sang a vocal solo, "Beloved It Is Morn," in her usual charming manner. The bride entered the church on the arm of her father, Rev. R. L. Pope, who gave her away. Mrs. Gertie Ross, presiding at the organ, played the stately Mendlesohn wedding march as the wedding party came faultlessly down the aisle. Rev. W. H. Thomas, pastor of Shorter Church, pronounced the marriage ceremony and was ably assisted by Revs. I. S. Wilson of Campbelf Church, A. Wayman Ward of Payne Chapel, Colorado Springs, and Fr. H. E. Rahming, rector of the Church of the Redeemer. Following the ceremony at the church a beautiful reception was held at the Y. W. C. A., where a large circle of friends gathered to offer felicitations to the happy young couple. The presents showered upon Mr. and Mrs. Fairbanks were many and gorgeous. THE COLORADO STATESMAN offers its sincere congregations to this worthy young couple by whose union two of the most prominent families in Denver were brought together. BOY SCOUT CAMPAIGN. The Extension Campaign of the Boy Scouts that has been proclaimed by Mayor Bailey is progressing in fine shape. The torch light parade, the first one of its kind in Denver for the past 18 years, which ushered in the week Saturday evening was indeed a revelation of what scouting does to stimulate originality in a boy. Not one of the several hundred Scouts in the procession had ever witnessed a similar event in their lives and whereas they received little or no help in putting the proposition over it speaks well for the boys. Anyone having seen this procession will not fail to witness the largest Scout Parade Denver has ever seen on Thursday morning at ten. The line of march was as follows: Assembly at 19th and Stout streets, up 19th to Broadway, over to 17th, down 17th to Larimer, over to 16th, up 16th to Cleveland Place, to Civic Center. At the Greek theatre the Boy Scout Band rendered a concert. While memberships were to be sold beginning Tuesday, Scout headquarters announced that Monday evening $4,000 had already been subscribed either in pledges or cash investments in future manhood. This has been the result of pre-campaign work of the local citizen's committees, five to twenty men back of each troop in the city. Each one of these committees has been assigned or volunteered to take a certain quota to raise toward the Scout budget. Thursday at noon the Denver Council and a number of the volunteer workers who are aiding to put the campaign over, will meet at the Albany hotel for lunch and it is expected that it will be a celebration in honor of oversubscription. Besides the men back of Scouting who are interested in the success of this campaign, the Scouts themselves are enthusiastic. They are 2,300 in number. There are 10,000 boys in Denver of Scout age, 4,000 of whom are untouched by any sort of character building influence. Each Scout is ambitious to dispose of at least one supporting membership of $10 in order that Scouting may be extended to twice as many boys. This will enable the Scouts in Denver to number 4,000 by January next, if enough adult leaders are secured. The camp at the civic center, the displays at the stores, demonstrations, the nightly concerts beginning Wednesday evening, the relay of the message from the mayor to the governor on Thursday p. m., and the big parade on Thursday morning will aid people to see what Scouts do and how they are benefited by the Scout training. Why not all fall in line? Do a good turn to some boy daily. Help every boy become a Scout. THE NEW YORK CITY MOTOR CO.

Small Boy's Lament. Ernest was ailing and obliged to miss a day in school. His mother prepared dainty food for him and nursed him in a manner to his liking. The next day as he started to school he was heard to grumble. "O. why didn't I have enough sense to stay sick? I just didn't know a good thing when I had it." Making It Clear. Clarence was trying to explain to his playmate the distinction between the small dog and the larger one, and this is the way he expressed himself: "The little dog is the baby dog, and the big one is the mama dog. Just like your mama." Forest Fires Spread Darkness. During the occurrence of great forest fires in Idaho, in August, 1910, the smoke was carried over the whole of the northern United States and southern Canada and far over the oceans. It was observed 500 miles from land. These fires caused "dark days" over a greater area than in any other case on record in this country. RIGINAL IN PO Funeral Notices.

SPECIAL PRAYERS FOR ARMS MEET ALL THE RELIGIOUS BODIES IN WASHINGTON TO OBSERVE "CONFERENCE SUNDAY." MOVEMENT MAY BE NATIONAL Divine Guidance for the Conferences On Limitation of Armaments Will Be Asked—Interesting Facts About Churches of the National Capital. Washington.—What may be called religious intercession is to be made in behalf of success for the conference on limitation of armaments and on Far East problems. In virtually every Washington church and perhaps in the churches throughout the United States, special prayers will be offered for the guidance of the confesses in the right patios, on the Sunday preceding the meeting of the conference on Armistice day. The plans for a "conference Sunday" are being made by representatives of all the churches in the Capitol City. Protestant bodies, Catholic bodies and Jewish bodies will join in prayer for a common cause. It is possible that the President has written a special message to the country, asking for a special religious observance of the time. Brooklyn is, or was at any rate, called "The City of Churches." It seems as if properly the name also might be applied to the city of Washington. There are churches here of virtually every known creed, and nearly every congregation is thriving in numbers of parishioners and in interest in the services. Sunday is quite well observed in the City of Washington. It is perfectly true that here, as well as elsewhere, part of the day is given over to outdoor recreation, but Washington shows on Sunday mornings that it is a church-going community. The Presidents of the United States always have set an example of regular church attendance. Episcopalians Building Cathedral There are some particularly interesting churches in Washington. The Episcopalians just now are engaged in the work, always a slow one in such cases, of erecting a great cathedral on a height well within the District of Columbia and overlooking the entire valley of the Potomac. The cathedral was planned by the late Bishop Satterlee, whose body now lies in a crypt under the finished part of the great building which he planned. The Roman Catholics have an interesting and beautiful church on Rhode Island avenue of the eastern style of architecture. This has been called the international church, for here, every Sunday, worship most of the foreign ambassadors, ministers, secretaries and attaches who are of the Roman Catholic faith. It was of this church that the late Chief Justice Edward Douglass White was a member. The Unitarians are constructing what in effect is a national church; that is, the building is nationally representative of their denomination. The present chief justice of the United States Supreme court, William H. Taft, is a member of this congregation. This Unitarian church is called All Souls. Its edifice for the greater part of a century stood at Fourteenth and L streets, but recently new ground was purchased on the hilftop of Sixteenth street, and it is to be used as the site of the new church, the old building having been torn down. The Church of All Souls has a bell which has been toiled on every occasion of national importance for much more than a century. This bell was cast by Paul Revere in his foundry at Boston not very many years after he spread "the alarm through every Middlesex village and farm." Universalists Also to Rebuild. Universalists Also to Rebuild. The Universalists have a church at Thirteenth and L streets. At present they have no settled pastor, for their last minister died recently while a comparatively young man. For some years Dr. John C. Van Schalck was the pastor of the Universalist congregation. At the time of the entry of the United States into the war he resigned his pastorate to enter the service of the Red Cross. With Ernest P. Bicknell he worked in France and Belgium for two years, having for a large part of the time the interests of the needy Belgian people under his charge. The Universalists, like the Unitarians, it is said, intend to erect a new building in Washington and to make it nationally representative of their faith. This seems to be the aim of many of the Christian denominations of the country. The Methodists have many churches in Washington and in several of them Presidents of the United States have worshiped. The Methodists also have established a great educational institution here called the American university. It is still in the building stuge. It occupies a commanding site in the northwest part of the city. The Presbyterians are strongly represented in the city of Washington. It was on Presbyterian initiative that the plan for a religious observance of the opening day of the conference was adopted. Exhibition of Rooseveltiana. Hermann Hagedorn, director of the bureau of research and information of the Roosevelt Memorial association. has been in Washington collecting material which bears on the life of Theodore Roosevelt. Already Mr. Hagedorn has secured a considerable amount of valuable memorabilia. It is the intention of the association to give a public exhibition of Roosevelt material in January in the public library in New York city. A permanent Roosevelt museum will be established to hold the association treasures. There is in Washington a great store of Rooseveltiana. Nearly every public man who was in office during Roosevelt's administration has letters written by the colonel, and many of these letters, it is understood, will be given into the keeping of the Memorial association. Recently I saw some of the most valuable of the Roosevelt manuscripts. They are the property of Rudolph Forster, executive clerk at the White House, who served in virtually the same capacity all through the Roosevelt administrations. It is not probable that Mr. Forster will part with these manuscripts, although they may be shown at the public exhibition in New York. I do not see how Mr. Forster can give them away, even to a memorial association, for in a real sense they are dedicated to him by the written word of Theodore Roosevelt. First Drafts of Famous Addresses. These manuscripts which Mr. Forster owns are the first drafts of the Roosevelt addresses in Berlin, in Paris and in Oxford, addresses made when he was on his return from the hunting trip in Africa. At the top of the first page of each of the manuscripts, in a broad, black-linked hand, appears Rudolph Forster's name, and following it the colonel wrote to the effect that the addresses by right belong "to you." Mr. Forster took the addresses at dictation and later took them to the colonel for revision. The revised first drafts are those which he has in his possession. They are underlined, crossed, re-crossed and sub-noted, with alterations, additions and amendments, some of them written with a blunt lead penell and some of them in ink with a broad stub pen. Each one bears the signature, "Theodore Roosevelt." It was Rudolph Forster who took at dictation most of Theodore Roosevelt's more intimate personal correspondence. His store of material is a Roosevelt treasury. If a personal note is to be allowed, I will say that I have a Roosevelt manuscript that is of high interest. It is the original draft of the article entitled: "Roosevelt on the Nature Fakers," which I wrote and which appeared in "Everybody's Magazine" some fifteen years ago. The "Nature Faker's" Story. I spent three hours one evening in the upstairs study in the White House with President Roosevelt while he talked to me about the iniquity of teaching school children a false natural history. He talked of some of the writers of the day who said that their writings were truths, and he laid bare their falsehoods. I took no notes but wrote the interview from memory the next day, and I wrote a short introduction. Then I took the manuscript to the White House for the President to read. He made few or no corrections in it, but taking a blunt lead pencil he added enough material to increase the length of the article about one quarter. I have this original draft of the manuscript and it is a fearful and wonderful looking affair. It is interlined on nearly every one of its fifteen or sixteen pages. On the top of one page the President, from some whim or other, wrote his name with the blunt lead pencil of correction. At the end of the article he wrote: "Corrected and approved by Theodore Roosevelt." I have in my possession a long letter from Theodore Roosevelt which I shall not give to the exhibitors nor yet present to the Memorial association, for the time for the appearance of such letters is not yet. It was written to me, not in response to any letter of mine, but apparently simply to give Colonel Roosevelt an opportunity to say to a friend what he thought about certain conditions, notably that of unpreparedness, during the days when it was said that we, as a people, were "too proud to fight." Explaining Rusting of Iron. A new theory explaining the rusting of iron was advanced by J. Newton Friend of Birmingham, England, at the meeting of the American Electro-Chemical society. What happens when iron rusts is a metallurgical mystery. Friend believes the corrosion starts "by the formation of colloidal ferrous hydroxide, which latter is alternately reduced by contact with iron and oxidized by contact with air, thus continuing the corrosion and the production of rust." He also has found by experiment that although a piece of iron rusts badly when in water moving about a half a mile an hour, that when the velocity is $2\frac{1}{2}$ miles an hour or more, there is practically no rusting at all. Ran in the Family. "You must have kept a great many people out of the penitentiary during your professional career." "Oh, yes," said the eminent criminal lawyer. "Did you ever regret defeating the ends of justice?" "Only once. I got a pickpocket acquitted and discovered later that he was a distant relative of mine."

DURABLE FINISH FOR OLD FLOORS Varnish, Paint and Stain Help Appearance and Make Them Easier to Care For. NEUTRAL COLOR IS FAVORED Plane or Sandpaper to Make Level and Smooth as Possible, Carefully Re- (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) "What can I do with these dingy old floors? Until this year they've been carpeted, but I know that the house would be more sanitary and easier to clean with finished floors and rugs that could be taken out of doors every week. I'd like to get the floors fixed while the boys are home from school to help, but I don't know how to start." This problem is perplexing many housekeepers who want their homes to look well and at the same time to make house cleaning easier. Dull Neutral Color is Best. The most durable and attractive finish for a floor depends on the kind of wood and how it has been treated, says the United States Department of Agriculture. Unfinished pine, spruce, or other softwood floors can be varnished, stained and varnished, or painted, depending somewhat on the condition of the wood and the rest of the woodwork in the house. Whatever finish is chosen, a dull neutral color that tones in with walls and furnishing is best. First of all, make the floor as level and smooth as possible. Plane or sandpaper rough places, and draw out all remnants of tacks or drive them below the surface with a nail set. Then scrub the wood with hot soap suds or scouring powder, and rinse thoroughly with clear water. Ink stains and similar spots can often be bleached out with a solution made by dissolving one teapoonful of oxalic acid in one cupful of hot water. This solution is poisonous and must, of course, be carefully handled, also all traces of it and of soap suds or scouring powder must be removed with clean water, otherwise they will injure the finish used on the floor. Homemade Stain for Floors. When the wood is perfectly dry the stain, paint, or varnish can be applied. For a pine floor, a good brown stain can be made by dissolving an ounce of permanentate of potash in a quart of warm water. This liquid is violet colored, but when applied to wood, chemical action results and the wood is stained brown. Another brown stain for either hardwood or softwood is made from 1½ ounces of pulverized glossonite dissolved in a quart of turpentine. Apply either of these stains with a clean brush or a sponge, taking even A boy mopping a hardwood floor. Let the School Boy Help by Putting on Wax With a Weighted Brush. strokes parallel with the grain of the wood, and wipe the stained surface at once with a clean, soft cloth or cotton waste. After the stain has dried for at least 24 hours, polish the floor with a soft cloth, and apply another coat if the color is not deep enough, or finish with varnish or wax. Use Best Quality of Varnish. Varnish is generally preferred on soft floors, and the best quality of shellac varnish or that especially recommended for floors should be used. Some varnishes are unsuitable for floors because they leave a hard, brittle coating that is easily marred and wears off quickly. Shellac varnish may be mixed at home as follows: One gallon alcohol denatured according to United States revenue formula No. 1. Put these ingredients into a well-stoppered bottle in a warm place, and shake the mixture frequently until the shellac is dissolved. The alcohol should not contain more than 5 per cent of water, and care should be taken not to pour water into it as it being mixed with the dry shellac. The caster oil aids in thickening the flexible and less brittle when dry, but may be omitted. In that case the quantity of gum shellac should be increased to $2\%$ pounds. If too thick, this varnish may be thinned by the addition of more alcohol. Have the surface of the wood and ORIGINAL IN FOOR CONDITION the air in the room free from dust before varnishing. Also, if possible, have the temperature of the room 70 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, and apply the varnish in the morning, because it dries better in the daylight. Brush the varnish in a thin coat with even strokes parallel with the grain of the wood. Allow the floor to dry for at least two days and apply one or perhaps two more coats in the same way. Painted Floors Easy to Clean. Good quality paint of neutral color also makes a good finish for softwood floors. At least two coats should be applied. After the last coat of paint is dry, a soft lustrous finish can be given with equal parts of linseed oil and turpentine. Rub this on with a soft cloth, and polish the floor with a woolen cloth. CLUB GIRLS PERFECT WORK ASSIGNED THEM CLUB GIRLS PERFECT WORK ASSIGNED THEM Idaho Members Honored for Completing Their Tasks. Not Only Make Garments but Put Clothing Work on Business Basis Learn How to Dress Well at Very Small Cost. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) The band turned out recently in Twin Falls county, Idaho, to lead a procession of 180 girls who didn't change their minds. They were clothing club girls organized by the county club agent of the United States Department of Agriculture and the state agricultural college. The original enrollment of the club was 180 members, and each one completed all of the work assigned. No wonder everyone A who could appeared for the "achievement day" celebration in honor of their 100 per cent completion record! These girls not only made garments but put their clothing work on a business basis. Each one began by making an inventory of her wardrobe. She listed what she should add to it, estimated the cost, planned what would be best for her to make during the year, and then set about securing results as a part of her club program. The girls proved to their families that their work was an important factor in extending the family income, and they demonstrated to all the other girls of the county how to dress well at small cost. DELICIOUS DISH OF MUTTON Steak Smothered in Tomato Sauce Is Recommended by the Home Economics Kitchen. Mutton steak (a slice from the thicker portion of the leg) will serve more people when cooked in the following manner than when served plain, and is delicious. The following recipe for this dish is recommended by the home economics kitchen of the United States Department of Agriculture. 1½ pounds mutton 1 can tomatoes, or steak 1 cup bread crumbs 1 quart fresh to- 1 small onion 1 slices Boultion seasoning Salt Spread over the mutton steak a layer of bread crumbs mixed with the minced onion and other seasonings. Roll and tie into shape. Place in a casserole or other dish with a tightly fitting cover. Pour the tomatoes over the meat and cook very slowly in the oven or on top of the stove for three or four hours. If the tomatoes do not cover the meat add a little boiling water. OF INTEREST TO THE HOUSEWIFE Boll rice in plenty of water until the grains swell open. Keep your dish cloth sweet and clean and don't forget to boil it. If custards are allowed to bake too long they become dry and stringy. Large boiled beets hollowed and filled with macedone of carrots make an attractive dish. When the apples with which you are going to make sauce are tasteless, add some chopped mint. Spaghetti is delicious reheated in the cream gravy of fried chicken and served on a platter with the chicken. Delicious bread-sticks are made from slices of bread cut half an inch wide, spread with butter and delicately browned in oven. Copyright, 1921, Western Newspaper Union. Why in the world do you want to carry CHOICE DISHES FOR THE FAMILY The important thing in serving is not so much the kind of food, but the way food, but the way it is prepared and served. Some of the most common and cheapest foods may be transformed by cooking and serving. ```markdown ``` Sandwich Cheese.—Take one-half pound of good cheese, put through the meat grinder, add two hard cooked eggs and three canned pimentos, also put through the meat grinder; add cayenne, salt, one-fourth of a cupful of ripe olives, also ground, mix with a little salad dressing to molsten and put in glasses, cover with paraffin paper and set in the ice chest until used. This will keep some time and is good for various uses. Honey Cakes.—Beat to a cream one-half cupful of strained honey and three tablespoonfuls of softened butter, stir in two cupfuls of flour sifted with two tablespoonfuls of baking powder, a little salt and one-half cupful of chopped filberts. Let the mixture stand over night to become thoroughly cold. Roll out very thin and cut in fancy shapes, sprinkle with nuts and sugar and bake in a hot oven. Prune Pie.—Bake a pastry shell and fill with stewed prunes, sprinkle with chopped nuts and cover with a layer of sweetened and flavored whipped cream. Any Day Salad.—Take two cupfuls of diced apples, one cupful of finely diced celery, one-half cupful of minced ripe olives and one-fourth of a cupful of waf nuts chopped. Add salad dressing and mix well; serve on crisp lettuce. Pepper Soup.—Take six or eight large red peppers, remove the seeds and veins and cook until tender.

Dredge with flour and add one cupful of chicken stock. As soon as cooked add a grating of nutmeg and two slightly beaten eggs. Do not boil after adding the eggs. Remember all the happiness That comes your way in living; Forget each worry and distress; Be hopeful and forgiving; Remember good, remember truth, Remember heaven's above you, And you will find, through age and youth, True joys and hearts to love you. —Priacilla Leonard. CODFISH WAYS. Codfish, though not belonging to the aristocracy, is a fish which is much liked in most families. When fresh it is held in high esteem, and salted it finds friends in all sections. Take a fresh fish of a few pounds, add fried in most families. When fresh it is held in high esteem, and salted it finds friends in all sections. Take a fresh fish of a few pounds, add three quarts of boiling water, a tablespoonful of salt, a tablespoonful of vinegar, a small carrot and onion, chopped fine, a few sprigs of parsley and a bayleaf or two. Let the fish come to the boiling point, then simmer gently for thirty minutes. When the fish is done, lift out, remove the skin, place on a hot platter and surround with the vegetables and a sauce prepared from the broth of the fish. Garnish with slices of lemon and sprigs of parsley.

Meanwhile have a cupful or more of shredded codfish soaking in cold water, add to the kettle of vegetables and one to two quarts of milk, according to the size of the family. When just boiling, add one-half dozen milk crackers oaked in cold milk and serve a cracker on top of each dish of chowder. Butter may be needed to add for seasoning and some salt, with a dash of ayenne. Such a dish is very welcome on a chilly night.
